Route optimization under uncertainty for Unmanned Underwater Vehicles
… the transition probabilities for a specific route. This linear programming problem is then used to create a constraint which forces the UUV to choose a route that maintains an appropriate confidence level for satisfying the time and energy constraints. Once the exact model is created, …

Route Optimization for Automated Bridge Inspection with Genetic Algorithm
… a Genetic Algorithm (GA) to generate efficient routes for a robotic bridge inspection team. Using robots to automate the process of bridge inspection will improve human safety and reduce time and money allocated to bridge inspections. To do this, we attack the problem of minimizing and balancing …

Metaheuristic algorithms for air-route optimization under climate change
This thesis studies air-route optimisation under climate-driven turbulence using both exact algorithms and metaheuristics. We first build a transparent baseline on synthetic grids and small airport networks where edge costs are still-air travel times. This allows reproducible comparisons between …

A priori and on-line route optimization for unmanned underwater vehicles
… as Rollout to determine the optimal a priori route that meets operational constraints with a specified probability. The thesis then shows how these formulations can solve and re-solve the UUVMPP on-line. In particular, the Rollout Algorithm finds task route solutions on average 96% of the …

Route optimization for mobile IPV6 using the return routability procedure test bed implementation and security analysis
Mobile IPv6 is an IP-layer mobility protocol that is designed to provide mobility support, allowing an IPv6 node to arbitrarily change its location on the IPv6 Internet and still maintain existing connections by handling the change of addresses at the Internet layer using Mobile IPv6 messages, …

Development of a GIS-based routing model
Route optimization models deal with multi-criteria or multi-objective optimization problems. The basic objectives of routing problems include transport cost and risk affects. An improved model presented in this thesis addresses a new optimization model, "Range Optimization Model". Although the core …

Distributed IP mobility management for hosts and networks
… for long-lasting data traffic, a lack of route optimization for ongoing communication, and a lack of synchronization of the mobile nodes‟ location in different networks. Moreover, the majority of these proposed schemes still need to be analysed, in order to quantify their feasibility. …
